Abstract

Cluster configurations are ordinary environments found in many organizations to target requirements of high performance computing. The high availability feature of the OSCAR (Open Source Cluster Application Resource) software environment, called as HA-OSCAR, it is an interesting monitoring mechanism to provide a more reliable configuration for distributed and parallel applications. In this article we present the design and implementation of a prototype which creates for mobile users an extra facility that can enhances the high availability scheme found inside the HA-OSCAR. Using a process oriented approach we create a tool that friendly allows a user with more facilities to monitor the cluster. Empirical case studies indicate that the prototype can be considered as an interesting approach to efficiently monitoring processes together with HA-OSCAR from mobile devices.
